Help with live usb (delicate move)
by Linux0110 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#52EGF)
Hello guys I want to install open mandriva on a USB. My plan was to boot it in live mode and then install it on another flash drive to have it installed and use it as a complete OS.
I want to prevent any type of changes to my internal hard drives. So I think to boot up the flash drive, unmount the 2 internal hard drives and then install the system on the mounted flashdrive. My question is do I have to unmount the disks in the live environment and I'm ok or I have to fisically remove the hard drives from the computer? Also if I unmount the hard drives in the open mandriva live environment are they unmounted even when I boot up my main normal OS (that is installed on the 2 hard drives) or the os will automatically mount them as usual ?
